Deep in Love (scomiche)

16.

When five rolled around Scott was pulling into Mitch's driveway. Asher seemed fairly excited to be having dinner with the Grassi's. He had always been fan of new people though. The father son duo walked up the the Grassi's front door and Scott let Asher ring the doorbell.

"Hey, Mr. Hoying!" Zoey says opening the door.

"Hey, Zoey." Scott smiles. "When we're not in school Scott is fine."

"Oh, ok." Zoey says. "Well, come on in. My dad's in the kitchen."

"Ok." Scott says. "Can you play with Ash?"

"Of course." Zoey says. She tells Asher to follow her and they go to her room. Zoey had always loved kids. Scott then heads towards then kitchen and quietly enters. He snecks up behind Mitch and wraps his arms around the brunette's small waist.

"Fuck!" Mitch says, suddenly feeling arms wrap around him. "You scared the living hell out of me, Scott!"

"Sorry." he says, chuckling.

"It's fine." Mitch sighs. "Dinner's almost done."

"Is there anything I can help with?" Scott asks. Mitch smiles at the offer and leans back into Scott's embrace.

"I think I'm good." Mitch says. Scott kiss the top of his head, slowly moving to the back of Mitch's neck. "As much as I'd love you to continue that, you're going to make me burn something."

"Sorry." Scott says, pulling away. He leans against the counter and watches as Mitch resumes his cooking.

"Don't apologize." Mitch says. "I'd love it if you'd do that again when we're alone."

Scott loved how bold Mitch could be sometimes. Yet at other times he was completely shy and blushing profusely. It was just one of the many things Scott liked about Mitch. One of the many things that made Scott want to ask Mitch to be his boyfriend. He just didn't think he was ready, not yet anyway.

"Well, maybe we'll be alone later if the kids get along." Scott says, a smirk on his face. "If we are i'll gladly continue where I left off."

Mitch glances at Scott and smiles. In that moment something comes over Scott. He can't describe how it feels exactly. All he know's is before he can stop himself he's blurting something out.

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

The words shock both Scott and Mitch. Yet once their out in the open Scott knows what he wants the answer to be. He's ready now. Now Scott just has to hope he gets the response he wants.

"Yes!" Mitch says, practically jumping into Scott's arms. The taller boy manages to keep Mitch up and brings him closer to his chest. "I thought you weren't going to ask for ages. I would have waited for you though."

"I know you would've." Scott says, kissing his, now boyfriend's, lips.

"You know we can't tell the kids, right?" Mitch asks. He wanted to but there was no guarantee that Scott and Mitch are permanent. They can't get their kids hopes up, not yet anyways. For now they would have to take it one step at a time, and that meant not telling their kids at this moment.

"I know." Scott says, his spirits dropping slightly. They get raised back up when Mitch presses his lips to Scott's. It looked like Mitch knows how to cheer Scott up. " You're worth it though."

"Dinner's ready." Mitch says. "Let's not act like too much of a couple during dinner. Both my kids are really smart."

"Trust me, I know." Scott chuckles. He sets Mitch down and then helps the brunette bring everything to the dinning room. Scott kisses Mitch one more time before Mitch calls for the kids to come eat.

Dinner seems to be going well except for one thing, Blake has been staring daggers at Scott since he sat down. Scott had never been more intimidated by a teenager before. He also couldn't help but think that maybe Blake knew him and Mitch were dating.

Scott really wanted Mitch's kids to like him. He knew that it would mean a lot to Mitch and Scott didn't want to be around all the time if they hated him. Mitch meant a lot to Scott, he just hoped Mitch's kids would see that. Asher seemed to like Mitch though. He did end up recognising Mitch as the doctor who helped with his leg.

"Look at all my signatures!" Asher says after dinner. Everyone, expect for Blake, was now sitting in the living room.

"Those are awesome." Mitch says, after looking at them for a moment. "I bet you're real popular at school. Zoey, can you keep Ash occupied? I want to give Scott a tour of the house."

"Sure." Zoey shrugs. Scott follows Mitch to another room. Scott has just started looking around when Mitch crashes their lips together. He locks the door and deepens the kiss. They only pull apart to catch their breath.

"Oh, this is an excellent tour." Scott smiles. He pushes Mitch against the closed door and starts kissing his neck again. Mitch has to bite his tongue to keep himself quiet.

"Don't leave any marks!" Mitch hissed after Scott starts biting down a little too hard.

"I feel like i'm in high school again." Scott sighs. He pulls away from Mitch's neck and kisses him on the lips one more time. "We should head back out there. You can only look at one room for so long."

Mitch nods and both men fix their clothing before leaving the room. The kids didn't even suspect a thing. Scott didn't want to leave but it was getting later. After a long hug Scott finally says goodbye to his boyfriend. He then heads home with Asher, thinking of Mitch the whole way there.
